Hezbollah MP says party was “right” to fight ISIS

BEIRUT – Hezbollah MP Hussein al-Moussawi said that the latest military advances and terror attacks by the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham in the region proved the party right in its fight against terrorist organizations.

“ISIS’ invasions in Iraq, Syria and Lebanon have proven the rightness of Hezbollah’s decision to fight them in their strongholds,” Moussawi said on Wednesday.

He also stressed the “necessity to face this [takfiri] project and the current division battle,” after two car bombs ripped through the Dahr al-Baydar area in Beqaa and a southern Beirut suburb in less than a week’s time.
